Would you improve if the content required it?

With threads like these you'll always get a select few who will say "I'll leave if I have to actually try", following it up with the tried and tested "I already work hard, I want FFXIV to be easy" and, of course, everyone is entitled to their opinions.

The issue with this game is that the developers will always cater to the lowest common denominator, and if even 1% of the playerbase wants to roll their face on their keyboard and still win, they'll lower the difficulty over and over until this is possible. There's a difference between making MSQ/Expert dungeons require A3S levels of competence and just requiring you to pay attention but it seems that even the latter is too much, based on the current Expert dungeons.

When Mhach came out, even after the basic mechanics had been worked out, there was still week after week of failure until those who actually put some effort into improving had improved their gear enough to carry those who didn't want to put any effort in. I only hope that the final 24-man Raid in 3.5 doesn't get turned into a yawn-fest considering how many people complained about Mhach.
